Chapter 566

The shock of the moment rippled through everyone present.

Who could have predicted such an outcome?

Between the revelations about Sylvie and Elodie's true identity, it was all too much to take in.

Grady's face shifted from pale to a splotchy blue, but he was left speechless.

Esmeralda had noticed Grady's actions, too; her expression was thunderous, but she no longer cared to intervene. At this point, Sylvie was about to be investigated by the authorities-far beyond Grady's reach.

Patricia's expression was inscrutable. She stared at Jarrod for a long moment before finally speaking: "Mr. Silverstein, aren't you the least bit concerned?"

Patricia frowned, unsettled by the odd detachment in his voice.
